Medical Spa "Eglės sanatorija" Birštonas

Danke schön und liebe Grüße. Hochqualifizierte Medpersonal. Gute Prozeduren. Alles gut geplant und vorbereitet. Die Zimmer sauber, Platz genug und alles nötigsten ist da. Sehr abwechslungsreiche Essen sauber und frisch. Bad mit Unterwasser Massagen inklusive mit mehreren verschiedenen Saunas.

We had the standard week long programme of five procedures a day. A large amount of other treatments are available (at extra cost) but it was hard to get the correct information as most of the staff had minimal English. It takes time to get used to the layout of the place and the effect of the treatments.The place is functional but with state of the art equipment, spotlessly clean and highly efficient. Wonderful pool complex with saunas and steam rooms. Also loved the peat wrap and various forms of massage especially the underwater one, lymph drainage leg compression and a kind of massage waterbed. However sad to say the food lets the place down. It is supposed to be holistic and to give the best conditions for health, but the canteen type meals are anything but healthy. There is a large emphasis on meat/pork with much fried food or tastelessly boiled. There is no indication of the ingredients so not good for vegetarians. The snack bar is better, with yoghurt and keffir and also black bread and cheeses, but is not always open. Surprisingly the bar with drinks and cakes and vending machines with all kinds of chocolate bars are readily available. If only fresh appetising healthy meals were more of a priority, also a more thorough way of explaining the treatments and gearing them to individual needs, the place would be perfect,
